all in the reception room at the capitoi
Everybody will be accorded patien
hearing and the case finally disposed OF,
just as all other cases of like character
have been in the past"
Numerous kilograms have been re-
ceived by the governor during the day,
most of them from Chicago. Their tenor
cannot be learned, other than that one
was from prominent Chicago capital
iSt who favOrS executive clemency.
There is little doubt that the governor
is at this time receiving cOmmqniea-
tons from an unusually large number
of the mOneyed men of the country, who
recommend Communication of sentence.
Some Of these gentlemen waive all
questions as to the law and justice OF
the case and simply favor cIemency on
the grounds of public policy, insisting
that it is better to send the condemned
men to the penitentiary for life than it
is to allow them to become profeSsed
martyrs by suffering the death penalty.
Attorney General Hunt was seen to-day
and asked his opinion as to the probable
outcome of the petitions for clemency.
81 have no idea what the governor
will do" said he. 1.-THE only time have
seen him since my return here was for
a short time yesterday afternoon. He
is, of course, considering the case, and
is considerating it cOnscientiOusly. As
l have always expected, peculiar senti-
ment has begun to develop among GER
tain elements as the final day -ap-
proacheS. These people, actuated al
most wholly by feelings of sympathy,
are signing petitions for clemency.
Many of them are signing them for the
anarchists just as they would sign them
for any other unfOrtunates, If the case
were presented to them. 1t is simple
matter of sympathy that is gradually
working this change of sentiment.
Many people, too, consider that degrees
of guilt vary with these men, and that
may be true to some extent. Lingg, for in
stance, undoubtedly manufactured the
bomb that did the bloody work. Engel,
too, may have been more Immediately
connected with the crime than others.
Anyhow, a feeling is broadcast that
certain of the condemned men were
more guilty than others. That be-
lief is undoubtedly affecting public SEN
timent to some extent. On the other
hand, there is no doubt that the refusal
of some of the men to ask or accept
communication of sentence has alien
ated much of the sympathy that they
would otherwise have had"
Many of the communications and res
OlutionS received from incendiary and
anarchist circles abroad are violent in
their denunciatiOn of the Illinois judi
ciary. The supreme court of this state
has been so miSrepresented by pOr-
ton of the press of Europe, and its de-
cisiOn so garbled, that Hon. n. l.. Free

All appointment papers are handled by
Ed Fowler, Republican. The interior
department is in similar condition. The
land Office is governed by Republicans.
Democratic heads of bureaus and heads
of departments must depend upon their
subOrdinateS. They are Republic
ans. They are not protected
by the civil service law, for
they are above that law. Their places
can be filled by direct appointments of
Democrats from civil life. Some of the
best offices in the departments are still
held by Republicans, under mistaken
idea that they have changed their polit-
zeal convictions for a mess of pOttage.
They may be honest, but they are enc
mics of the administration. The subor-
dinate clerks in the classified civil
service are not complained of, poor
devils. They are harmless. But the
retention of Republican chiefs is ul-
satisfactory to all who have dealings
with the departments. Democratic
senators and members do not like to go
to these fellows and confide their pOlit-
ical secrets only to be betrayed in 1888,
possibly. These things ought not so

WASHINGTON. Nov. 6.-The state
elections are over and the campaigning
is done. The congressman are already
here in noticeable numbers, and the
trains are bringing daily accessiOnS to
their ranks. Every member, almost,
has his little hobby with him. The
floor of the house is newly carpeted, in
advance Of the session. 1t ought not to
be. but it is. The new Solons tramp
over it and destroy its freshness, but
they cannot wait. The new members
are already selecting their desks. but
when the lottery is opened they will find
their selections pre-empted by some
other fellow who draws lucky number.
The new carpet is bright plush, and as
green as the most ardent home rule
Irish-Amer;can could desire. 1t has a
small anarchist red figure, which re-
lieveS it of the emerald hue. and suggests
to the member that at least
SOMETHING HAS BEEN PAINTED RED

beaming faces of the members. the
desks are most shiny. as their heavy
cOatings of yarniSh reflect and refract
all lights. Those members who have
not been fOrehanded, as they should
have been. are now gadding the streets
looking for Rooms for Rent and ring

is also newly carpeted and freed
from dust. Their desks, too, are shin
ing with varnish. But there is all air
of dreary dignity about that end of the
capitol, no matter whether the senators
are there OF not. The dust hunters. the
men and women of the national broom

cObwebs in every nook and Granny. The
immense structure is in Sunday garb.

AN ECCENTRIC MONARCH.
How He Fooled His Physicians
and Cured Himself.

King Ernest of Hanover was an SEC
cen tric," and the following story fur
nisheS fair illustration of the sort of
originality in which he was apt to in
dulge: Once his majesty was ill for
several weeks, really ill, seriously at his
age. The doctors, of course. came every
day, sometimes twice or more. and
they prescribed as usual. Any one
who has been ill for any length of
time and who has been attended
i'll the ordinary way once or twice day
by one doctor, will know what various
medicines are prescribed and changed
again and again under each phase of
the disease, and he would probably be
astonished to see all the medicines
which he has drank during his illness.
Any one may then conceive what a
quantity was likely to be ordered and
what changes were likely to he rung by
a bevy of doctors, with such precious
parsonage as king for patient. AS
any bottle or powder was brought his
majesty said: PUT it in the cup
board" and again and again in was:
PUT it in the cupboard" Not one drop
was touched.
Starving and patience were the only
remedies reSorted to. At last his majesty
got his good turn and began to feel that
he could eat again with relish, and by
degrees nature flung off the disorder,
whatever it was, which had run its
course. His majesty was up and
dressed early and at business. ''Get all
of these bottles and powders and pill
boxes out of the cubbords," he said,
and range them in row all round the
ROOM" 1t was very small room, and
they almost made circle around the
walls. The doctors came in Sinking
and smiling, and congratulated the
king on being up again and looking so
well. Eyes, DOCTORS" said his majesty,
''thank God it is so. But look here
count it up; don't you think that if |
had drank all that stuff | should have
been dead long ago."

About His Supper.
Special to the Globe
WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.-SenatOr Haw-
ley, of Connecticut, has temper of his
own, and doesn't care who knows it. He
stopped at the Metropolitan hotel, a few
days ago, and ordered his supper at
once. He was in hurry and expected
his meal to be ready as soon as he
could shake the dust of travel from his
body. But the Metropolitan, like other
well-regulated hotels, has rules and reg
ulati0nS. There are regular hours for
meals, and the dining room is not open
outside of those hours. When Senator
Hawley had concluded his additions
ID came down TO supper the dining
room was closed. He made an eloquent
plea to the steward, head waiter and
office clerk, but in vain. Tnen, allow

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Nov. 6.-Advices from
the Indian Territory regarding the po-

as given in special kilograms are that a
large number of the supporters of Judge
Mays, the chief elect of the Dowing
party, had gathered at the rancho of
Judge Mays, twenty-five miles south of
Tahlequah, where feast has been in
progress for three days. One hundred
Indians had collected with their wagons,
teams and ponies last night, and 100
more would be added. No arms were
seen in the crowd, but it was not known
whether any were concealed in the
wagons. The dispatches also say that
two reporters were driven away from
Tahlequah last week and that it is diff
cult to get news from that point.

three parts. known as the military divi-
siOns of the Atlantic, the Missouri, and
the Pacific, each commanded by a major
general of the army. These grand divi-
siOns comprise the whole territory of the

The division headquarters are at Gov

cisco respectively. The army con-
sists of 25 regiments of infantry,
10 of cavalry and 5 of artillery,
a battalion of engineers, consisting OF
four companies, and detachment of
ordnance. The Ninth and Tenth regi-
ments of cavalry and the Twenty-fOurth

are cOlored soldiers. These regiments
are, in all respects, on the same military
